At present the New York Giants are groggy. The recent four defeats at the hands of Pittsburgh is the cause, In the spring, prior to the opening of the season, in doping out the chances of the National league clubs, | T leancd strongly to the Pirates, 1 picked Pittsburgh as the one team with a great chance to make trou- ble for the Giants. During the first two months of the race the play of lie Pirates made me feel as if T didn't know a single thing about haseball. When the pitchers worked well the batters didn’t hit and vice versa, The'club lacked consistency, simply couldn't win with regularity. Perhaps too late, the Pirates have struck. their gait, are playing the fine ball the team 1s capable of, and pressing New York hard, da- spite the big lead galned by the ering about. . Five Classy Recruits In the fine showing of the Pitts- burgh club the work of five recruits stand out prominently. Usually if a club is fortunate enough to have a couple of recruits develop into regulars it is satisfled. Five recruits, Wright, Cuyler, Yde, Moore and rat While the great hitting of Out- fielder Cuyler, the fine work of Moore when gubstituting for Traynor at third, and the excellent pitching of Yde and Kremer have helped greatly, the acquisition of Shortstop Wright has done much o make the Pirates a strong pennant possibility. Seldom has a club, laeking a brils liant shortstop, won a pennant. A fast-working pair , around second base is most esscutial to success. Wright has made good the fine things said about his felding ability. He has exceeded expectations at the bat. Many of his biggest hoosters had a fear for his hitting. Wright supplanted Maranville at short. What to do with Maranville was a problem. He was shifted to sccond base and has fitted in perfect- ly. No doubt Wright has profited greatly from having so able a head as Maranville playing alongside of him. Moore Stars As Suhb While Moore hasn't enjoyed so strong a spotlight as the other four rookies, his work has been no less meritorious, When substituting for Third Base- ed man “Pie" Traynor, Moore pla great ball and hit a la Rogers Horn by. In 35 games played he has an average close to 400, If the Pirates pull the unexpected 0. | Speaker sees No Chance of Wi . B | A 0 ' H H il | ; : WASHINGT ) AR K.

Paul Carries Pight, Berlenbach, on the other hand, carried the fight to Stribling in the last three rounds and rocked the Georglan with a series of rights and lefts to the lead In the fourth round that kept a streum of blood flowing from the Southerner's nose. Stribling was guilty of holding re- peatedly. He was cautioned several times by the referee and once was hooed by the crowd, for pounding Berlenbach while the latter's back was turned. Had Good Defense, Stribling had an effective defense for Berlenbach's famous knockout punch, a blow that has floored niore than two score of his oppon- ents for the final count. Except in the fourth and fifth rounds, when Berlenbach was at his best, Strib- ling's elusive style of battla had the New Yorker baffled. ‘I'ne Georgian easily piled up a lead in the first three rounds on | his speed alone, while he stuck his long left into Berlenbach's face. At close range, Berlenbach and- ed heavily on Stribling's ribs and toward the end of the third round a glancing lelt started the blood from Stribling's nose. Berlenbach was the aggressor from the fourth on, but he found Stribling a difficult target. Once he forced the south- erner against the ropes after they had exchanged stiff wallops to the |head and sent his right and left crashing into the Georgian’s chin, but Stribling quickly ducked out of further danger. ! Light Too Short, The fight, most critics agreed, was too short a test of the fighting ubilities of either boxer to be con- clusive. It was made so, however, because of the New York law which prevents hoxers under 21 from en- gaging in more than six round cncounters, Stribling is only 19, They were closely matched phyi- cally, both weighing 167%.
